There are hacked versions of the firmware available for most computer
DVD players that will make them region-free. Google for "DVD firmware".
If it the player software (rather than the drive itself) that's
region-locked, there are hacks available for that as well.
Warning: if you get a bad one, you may lose access to your DVD player
completely. However, I've re-flashed all of mine without any problems
(so far).
Oh yes ... British DVDs ? Easiest place is amazon.co.uk.
